Variable Area Flow Meters – FC & FS Series

Chemline FC and FS Series Variable Area Flow Meters are ideal for plastic piping. They provide a combination of accurate visual flow rate measurement and clear flow indication from a distance. Optional limit switches allow the units to signal a low or high flow alarm. An optional flow transmitter provides a 4 to 20 mA signal output. These flow meters must be installed vertically with flow upward.

Features & Benefits

  • Clear Visual Indication
    Large orange float is visible from a distance.
    Range indicators slide along dovetail track.
  • Easy Installation and Maintenance
    Just unscrew union nuts and tube slides out of line.
  • Choice of Four Tube Materials for Many Applications:
    Clear PVC: For Water or Chemicals up to 60 Degrees C (140 Degrees F); High Chemical resistance at low cost.
    Polyamide (PA): For Water or Air up to 75 Degrees C (167 Degrees F); High impact strength and optical clarity.
    Polysulfone (PSU): For Chemicals and Gases up to 100 Degrees C (212 Degrees F); High impact strength and good chemical resistance.
    PVDF: For Chemicals and Ultrapure fluids up to 110 Degrees C (230 Degrees F); High impact strength and excellent chemical resistance.
  • Ideal for All Types of Plastic Piping
    All types of end connections in PVC, CPVC, PP, and PVDF
  • Low Pressure Drop
  • Good Measuring Accuracy – Class IV
    ± 3% of indicated value, plus ± 1% of full scale – Read scale at top (largest diameter) of float.
  • Non Fouling
    Float is self supporting in the flow. No guide rod (which can cause the float to jam) is necessary.
